[@ericdiedrich9869]

I can't wait to get mine going. I got the adapter and the box on the TL was a bad box. It wouldn't come up on my solix. It had also crashed my mega live that was working fine. Long story short I've been down a month waiting for everything to come back from humminbird. My ML should be here Monday. Fingers crossed everything starts working great.

I have the same setup for my boat with TargetLock and mega 360 with dual Solix 15 at bow. You have saved me hours of figuring this stuff out. I do look forward to future videos. Is aligning the 360 and TL the same thing as calibrating them? How do you go about doing this? Thanks Jim

[@BigJimFishing]

Yes and no. 360 might need a manual adjustment then an off set. TL is calibrating.

[@sowabunga]

@@BigJimFishing Are there instructions for doing this or is it eyeballing it?

[@BigJimFishing]

@@sowabunga eyeball, I use bridge piling and an Allen wrench

[@clemminer7889]

Big Jim, Thanks for your videos! They helped me install the Targetlock. Question - is there a way to stabilize the tragetlock while running the lake or towing?

[@BigJimFishing]

No, they are designed to flex as per HB

[@old_shirt]

The TOP button on the remotes are MINNKOTA STEER by default

[@Zee20-b2m]

Hey Big Jim I have a ? why buy target lock to keep it on Minn Kota steer you could have saved $1500. and kept it on the trolling motor?

[@BigJimFishing]

@@Zee20-b2m that’s what I went back to on my new boat.

[@jameslencke9098]

Jim, my target lock gets installed soon. My question is has your boat icon always worked or did it show true direction only after target lock installed? Seems most have not had the boat icon working properly. Also, I nave a Phoenix and curious if you tried using the boat cover yet? Thanks

[@BigJimFishing]

Sometimes the icon strays, but it corrects. If you cannot see any icon, turn it on in overlays. I have not used cover, but I did eyeball it and I think we will be good. Hey, new video idea….Phoenix cover all that stuff.

[@jameslencke9098]

@@BigJimFishing yeah that would be interesting. On the icon, I see it but just never accurate. Seems to be a common issue. Just wondering if it is more accurate with target lock.

[@BigJimFishing]

@@jameslencke9098 do you have a separate GPS heading sensor hooked up via NMEA? If not, that is the answer. I do. It’s hooked to my drivers console unit and shared to the network

[@glelgallonegro7275]

Jim hope you doing good had a question on the target lock foot pedal icon that shows on the humminbird graph as I go through the steps from sonar options to overlays on my I'm not getting the option to select Megalive controll is there something else that I need to do to add that feature? Thanks,

[@BigJimFishing]

Make sure it’s installed on network

[@glelgallonegro7275]

Yeah it is I everyday the pairing again the only thing I haven't done is do the calibration of the water yet hopefully that's all it needs I'll let you know if that works ones I do it thanks

[@56igadget]

How come the bottom always goes up from left to right?

[@BigJimFishing]

Because it moves from deeper water under the nose of the boat to shallower depths at the end of the chosen range under unit settings

[@sonar5676]

120 degrees on Sweep feature.

[@BigJimFishing]

I know

[@BigJimFishing]

I just trimmed it out of the video. I hope that works. I can't believe I said the wrong number. LOL

[@davidk6613]

can you adjust the sweep to sweep the left side of boat instead of out the front?

[@BigJimFishing]

@@davidk6613 no Sir

[@shamansshaman1823]

I don't understand all the vertical lines showing on your screen. How do you read that?

[@BigJimFishing]

I just rewatched this video to try to answer your question….my question to you is… What vertical lines? Give me a time stamp and I can answer

[@jimmywoodard3272]

I have a terrova with i-pilot and Bluetooth. Can I get the I-pilot link controller head for a terrova trolling motor and make mine a terrova with i-pilot link?

[@jimmywoodard3272]

If

[@BigJimFishing]

that would be a question for engineering. Call HB customer service and ask for an Engineering rep. I know you need an ethernet cable (linK).
